Genes affected
GATA2 (HGNC:4171): (GATA binding protein 2) This gene encodes a member of the GATA family of zinc-finger transcription factors that are named for the consensus nucleotide sequence they bind in the promoter regions of target genes. The encoded protein plays an essential role in regulating transcription of genes involved in the development and proliferation of hematopoietic and endocrine cell lineages. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.[provided by RefSeq, Mar 2009]

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change does not appear to have been previously described in patients with GATA2-related disorders and has been described in the gnomAD database with a low population frequency of 0.0080% in African subpopulation (dbSNP rs746737860). The p.Met236Val change affects a moderately conserved amino acid residue located in a domain of the GATA2 protein that is known to be functional. In-silico pathogenicity prediction tools (SIFT, PolyPhen2, Align GVGD, REVEL) provide contradictory results for the p.Met236Val substitution. Due to these evidences and the lack of functional studies, the clinical significance of the p.Met236Val change remains unknown at this time.

Monocytopenia with susceptibility to infections Uncertain:1
Jul 17, 2019
Johns Hopkins Genomics, Johns Hopkins University
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This GATA2 variant (rs746737860) is rare (<0.1%) in large population datasets (gnomAD: 6/82258 total alleles; 0.002126%; no homozygotes). This variant is not described in the literature to our knowledge, and a single submitter in ClinVar classifies the sigificance of this variant as uncertain. Two bioinformatic tools queriedpredict that this substitution would be tolerated, however the methionine residue at this position is evolutionarily conserved across all species assessed. Bioinformatic analysis predicts that this missense variant would not affect normal exon 3 splicing, although this has not been confirmed experimentally to our knowledge. The clinical significance of c.706A>G is uncertain at this time.

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The p.M236V variant (also known as c.706A>G), located in coding exon 2 of the GATA2 gene, results from an A to G substitution at nucleotide position 706. The methionine at codon 236 is replaced by valine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This alteration was identified in an individual diagnosed with leukemia (Weinberg OK et al. Am J Clin Pathol, 2019 Aug;152:258-276). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the available evidence, the clinical significance of this variant remains unclear.
